Beyond the Grades
With college comes homework, studying and tests. And with these come scores, grades and GPAs. While all are very important to your student’s college and future career, college is more than just letters and numbers. In fact, most potential employers look for what truly distinguishes your student from other applicants. These characteristics include involvement in and outside of school; interests, skills and talents; the ability to manage time; and your student’s personality as demonstrated during an interview.
